Ok so 1st of all I love the samsung product but sometimes the updates create more problem than it fixes them. So I have the Samsung s8 and since the last 2updates,I've been having a few problems. First one, I keep getting ads popping up on my screen. Examples if it goes on sleep mode when i reopen it I have an ad,or if I'm searching for something same thing an ad popup. Sometime it's a full on screen page and other time it's just a little icon on the top right of the screen.(picture attach).I've try to close the notifications, close all the windows,disable ads nothing seems to work. Second problem, when I listen to music either on spotify, Samsung music or watching videos on YouTube it pause by itself for no reason, again I've try some of the things i saw around the internet, turning off power saving,etc. still nothing works. Before I try the hard reset is there something i can do to fix these problems?f7203927-0901-4a9b-a252-6af157a733ca.jpg

You installed junkware. Show us your app drawer so we can see what's the rogue app. Any cleaner app by any chance?

It looks a lot like Clean Master or something like that

@CHMultimedia so I downloaded the adons detector deleted all the app that seem that might be causing the problem and still have some popup. I ll figure it out though. For the second problem do you have any idea why music,video stop?

Don't know why some people download crap from wherever... just because something is "free" & you end up paying for it anyway lol

People buy those bold promises, such as "speed up your phone to 9999%", "coold down your fone to fast"

Try to think back to when you started noticing the ads, then try to remember what app you installed, your issue is not caused by a Samsung update.

Get Adons Detector from the Play Store & scan your device - Can't blame people for having a little fun 😉

Well this came from somewhere right? It either came from you or someone that used the phone. Hence my query of your application list. Not trying to insult you or harm you in any way. If I'm here, it's to help others. I'm really sorry if it seemed like it wasn't my intent, and yes this is said without any sarcasm or any second thoughts
